Hermana Elizabeth Hardy

Hola mis queridos amigos!! We had our first week of the new transfer and it was definitely a crazy but amazing week!! Every day was full of so many miracles and I just feel SO blessed to be here in Pamplona serving people that I love so much!! We got straight to work as soon as we made it back to Pamplona from Madrid where I went to pick up my new companion Hermana Chase, and we are just super pumped to keep working hard through this transfer! If there is one thing that I have learned since becoming a missionary it's that the Lord takes care of us as we trust in Him! I have felt like an instrument in His hands more than I ever have this week and I love it 😍 Highlights/Fun facts: - We had a big party on Tuesday to say goodbye to the Elders and Hermana Amado who were leaving and a bunch of members and friends came which was super sweet and fun!! - Wednesday was a super long travel day but it was super fun because I got to see some of my besties! I took Hermana Amado down to Madrid, ...

Holaaaa mis queridos amigos!!  I hope you all had a wonderful week! This week absolutely zoomed by and as you might have guessed from the title, we got transfer news this Saturday!! I am staying here in Pamplona and I will be getting my new companion Hermana Chase on Wednesday!! Sadly my dear comp Hermana Amado is leaving and they white washed the Elders out of the Pamplona 2 ward so I'm now the last one standing in that ward 😢 Also since we only received 3 new hermanas in our mission, president wasn't able to send Pamplona any more hermanas so we will be working in the 2 areas for another transfer! I'm a little nervous and excited for this transfer but one thing I know for sure is that we will be busy which is always great and the Lord will provide miracles as we trust in Him!! Highlights/ Fun facts:  - For pday last week, my comp and I went to this cathedral here in Pamplona with a huge museum under it that was actually so cool! Sometimes I forget how old things a...

Hola mis queridos amigos!! Another great week here in Pamplona!! The work is so blessed here and there is just so much joy in serving the Lord and bring more people to Him!! Highlights / Fun facts: - As you might have guessed from the title, my brother got married this week!! It was honestly pretty tough not being able to be there with my family but I am so incredibly happy for him and my new sista Sarah!! I am sending all my love to them this week and even though it's sometimes hard to be so far from my family, I know I am exactly where the Lord needs me to be and He is blessing my family for my service 😍 - We went to the beach in Bilbao for Zone Pday on Monday and it was sooo fun!! I got to be reunited with some of my besties from the zone and we had a great day with great weather on the beach which was such a miracle because it normally rains all day in Bilbao!! - We had some super spiritual lessons with our friend Alejandro this week and he just never ceases to amaze me! As we...

Hola mis queridos amigos!! Another great week here in Pamplona and I have just been reminded of the true joy that comes from following Christ this week! That doesn't mean that life is always easy and everything just works out, but when we follow Christ, our joy is magnified in the good times and we are lifted up above our circumstances in the hard times! Every week has its ups and downs for sure, but the joy that comes from being a disciple of Christ never fades if we keep turning to Him! Highlights/ Fun facts: - The title of this email comes from a song from the sacred music app and it just makes me so happy! I totally recommend going and giving it a listen! I had a moment during one of my personal studies where I just listened to this song and looked at my picture of Christ and reflected on all the joy I feel as I serve Him and all of the gratitude I feel for everything He has done for me and I just smiled 😀 (and maybe shed a couple tears) - We had a couple rainy days at th...
